Careful where you hang your washing in Atherton.
The residents of a property there, managed to snap a pic of a spider in their backyard. Of course, this isn't newsworthy in itself, except that the Golden Orb Weaver was in the midst of eating a fucking bird:

"Spider Eats Bird", Local Cairns News.
A Chestnut-Breasted Mannikin, to be precise.
I should point out that there are other spider species known to eat our avian friends. For instance, there's the Australian Bird-Eating Spider, which, despite its name, "rarely eats birds".
Oh, and there's also the Goliath Bird-Eating Spider, which have been known to feed on "rodents, lizards, and even bats".
